Hmm. Bland

//Tried to rhyme but the thoughts flush,

Wanted to write before the feelings rush.//

Lost amidst the sea of faces,

In a crowd that's loud and wild,

I am but a lonely figure,

In this boisterous music-filled world.

The beat is strong, the bass is deep,

And I'm swaying to the sound,

But the emptiness I feel inside,

Is nowhere to be drowned.

I see people laughing, singing,

All around me they're alive,

But I'm just a ghost, a shadow,

In this music-filled hive.

I try to scream, to shout out loud,

But my voice is lost in the crowd,

No one hears my silent cry,

In this sea of music and sound.

I long for someone to reach out,

To break through this lonely spell,

But all I have is the music,

And the loneliness that it can't dispel.

So I close my eyes and let it all in,

The sound, the beat, the pain,

And I dance alone in this crowded place,

With my loneliness, my only refrain.

Hmm, Shit.
